Good morning Clara, How fortunate you are to have lovely camellias. That flower you show is so exquisite. Dare I say, it almost doesn't look real~it is so perfect. So pretty with your china and pearls. Great photography and words to accompany them.Happy Day, Ruthie from Lady B's Time for Tea

What a beautiful post, Clara! I love the colour of the camelia and it goes so sweetly with your amazing teacups. I always enjoy your poetry and your photos are simply lovely. Thank you so much for sharing with us and joining me for tea. Have a beautiful day.

I love camellias. Used to live in a warmer climate where we grew them. They are so beautiful! Love your pretty teacups...romantic indeed. We actually had a dusting of snow...unusual for us. Thanks for linking to Tuesday Cuppa Tea!Ruth

Those are beautiful tea cups Clara and I agree they go so well with pink camellias and pearls. I completely agree with Gertrude Wister because I keep running around the garden looking at my aconites and snowdrops and willing the crocuses on. Oh my goodness they are so precious. I think though, that by the time my pink camellias bloom, I might be over the precious winter blooms stage and the millions of blossoms will become a nuisance as they fall all over the ground and front porch...lol. No...just kidding. I love my pink camellias. Hope your week is shaping up to be a great one. :)
